THEY MADE VERY PRETTY MEN.
Two Serving Maids Don Masculine Attire
to Brighten Of Thieves.

Milburn n. j. special to Morning Journal.
After being thoroughly frightened sew
eral weeks ago, TWO servant girls IN s
fashionable part of the town adopted q
novel method Of keeping away burglars
and trsmps during the absence OF the
family.
The occupants of the house left early
in July for e tour through the west, and
the two girls were left in charge of the
house. One night about the first Of this
month the two girls were awakened by
hearing footsteps In the lower part Of
the house. Both are plucky, and it took
They were Just in time to see two men
the darkness. The girls found that
return TO bed again. They sat up, dis
cussing various plans for keeping thieves
away.
Finally Mary, 8 plump and pretty Irish
girl, suggested that they dress in
mems clothes until the return of the
family. II men were seen about the
house, she argued, no one would venture
to rob i.
ilCI COiu fJSblOu WAS VI lliC SAluC V tIlE-
ion, and on the following day they pro-
cured trousers aud coats and were soon
transformed into two very handsome
men.
They spent there spare time sitting neer
the front Windows, where passers-by
could see them, ard 1t soon became
noised about that two men were IN charge
OF the house.
A little over = week ago two tramps
knocked 81 the Kitchen door early in the
morning and were surprised to see the
door cpered by misunderstanding
young man. They asked for something
TO eat, but Mary refused them, and IN the
most masculine voice she could command
ordered them TO "Git out blamed quicf
or she would fire them OUT"
The trsmps looked at her in an ugly
way for 6 moment, out they saw she wss
determined, and, being in ignorance O.
her true sex. they slowly walked away
The girls have not since been bothered.

COTTON.
The leading features of note this week
were the heavier crop movement and the
generally less favorable tenor of crop ad
vices The latter feature, Judging from
the advance in prices recorded, seems to
have exercised the most influence.
A continuation of the slight IN
easiness noted in regard to Sep
TENDER WAS observed, but in view of in
creased strength of the situation toward
the close, this was also lost sight of.
Foreign advices reflected the growing be-
lief in the less favorable condition OF the
growing crop. Southern markets, as a
rule, come higher. The tenor Of advices
from the growing crop indicate that
Arkansas is experiencing the worst
weather. A Memphis district report made
public on Thursday was rather bullish,
reporting considerable damage in that
section. Business done this week is of
smaller volume in spots, while futures
slightly more active. Spots up to
Thursday night were l6c above last
weeks closing prices. Futures were up
fifteen to twenty points on the
week. On Friday the market
was strong and slightly higher.
Spots were unchanged at loo for
middiings. The sales this week Of spots
were 477l bales, against II ,27G bales last
week. Future sales were $4,000 bales,
against $50, 800 bales last week. The
sales OF spots for the year just closed
were POP, 9l5 bales, and of futures 2G,-
1862, 600 bales. The net receipts at New
York were S7,496 bales, and the gross re-
ceipts l,25S,472 bales Bradstreet's.

Normal Review Excursion.

The excursion of the Cassville Nor
NAL Review, last Saturday was per-
feet success. A brass band and a
string band furnished music for the
party which Dubuque papers report
was tho finest that has been in their
city for many day. Three hours were
spent in visiting places of interest;
the authorities having appointed two
men to do the honors.
Visits were made to the fire depart
ment. elevator, Herald printing office,
Court house, and Jail. The fire depart
ment brought out their horses and
hitched them twice to show with what
speed it could be done in time of necess-
ity. The company numbered $50, which
was as many as the boat was allowed
to carry. This is another evidence OF
the deserved popularity of Mr.. Show
alters school, the success of which this
year indicates that it will be supported
in way to make it permanent in
stitution

Because Fennimore is not more regu-
larly represented in the HERALD, it
must not be inferred that the place is
deteriorating. This summers heat
doesn't tend TO stir up much energy
but we hold to fair degree of life and
activity and the prospects for a liberal
trade during the fall are first rate. The
copious and timely rams of the past
week assure an excellent corn crop.
and comparing their prospects with
that of other sections of the country.
our farmers realize they have much to
be thankful for.
Picknicking seems to be the fashion
able past-time these days. But think
ing people wonder why Sunday seems
to be the popular day for such excur-
sions, and how church people can
stretch their consciences to participate
in them on that day. What must be
the ultimate results to a community
when such customs are kept up. Does
it not let down the bars to = more IL
centious use of the day that ought to
be more sacredly guarded by christian
and moral citizens.
The German Lutheran church has
been made bright and coy looking by
new dress of paint. Now, why
wouldn't it be proper thing to mount
a sweet toned bell on this church
building and while the subject is men,
toned also on the other churches of the
villagee Then it would be known we
have more than one church and what
more genial influence is there than the
sweet tones of Sabbath bells to make
up Sabbath quiet.
Rev. Mr.. Sims and family are enjoying
rest and recreation at the Belmont
Bethel Camp meeting.
Martin Oswald and family with Cleo
and Clemmie Wright spent last week
with Lancaster friends.
Mrs. Fred McNair, OF Lancaster. is

Death Of David drummer.

David drummer, former resident
of this city who held a position in the
Lancaster Wooden Mills a number of
years ago. died and was buried at
GAINESVILLE on the 10th inst. De-
ceased was the father of James Crum-
mer and Mrs. Ida Carson and he also
leaves an aged wife to mourn his
death. The GAINESVILLE Daily Recorder
of the 18th inst contains the following:
Funeral services over the ramains
of the late Mr.iDavid drummer were
held yesterday afternoon at O'Clock
at the family residence on Center
Avenue, in the Fifth ward. Rev.
Dewitt Peake, pastor of Court Street
NJ. Z. church officiated and appropriate
music was rendered by Miss Alice
Walker and Miss Wray, Both of the
cotton mills shut down in order
that the employees might attend the
last sad rites. After the services the re-
mains were takento Oak Hill cemetery
for interment. Mr.. James drummer,
of Elizabeth, H.. and Rev. Joseph Crum-
mer, of Freeport, Illinois, brothers of the
deceased, were all the relatives from
abroad who reached the city in time to
attend the services. There was a good
attendance of friends from the city,
Grant County herald. [volume] (Lancaster, Wis.) 1850-1968, 1887-08-18

The institute has been encouraged by
numerous visits from persons who are
interested in the work, several of whom
have taken part in the general discus
sion of topics. Misses Nettie and
Lena Oswald and Bertha Morse have
kindly favored some of the sessions with
most excellent musical selections for the
piano. Prof. ID. McGregor, President
of the State Normal School at Platte
vile, accompanied by his little daugh-
ter, spent Wednesday at the institute
and was a most welcome visitor. This
week closes the Institute for this year
in this county, but the outline used
will be made the basis of much of the
work that will be done during the
weekly teachers meetings that will be
held during the winter in various
places. Seventy-three applicants for
certificates we're enrolled at the teachers
examination held last Saturday. Ex-
aminations will close next Saturday at
3 o'clock p. m. in order that all who
desire to take the afternoon train for
